An unwavering trust on the fickleness of man Not time alone, but a lot of jostling with ideas Undisguised celebrations of mistaken identities Fidgety hands flipping the pages too soon Waiting to glance at the blunt and rude images Frank discussions traded with secret gossips A crude demonstration of intolerant coexistence Spaces marauded by a crowd; onlookers rejoice Models of insincerity standing on flimsy foundations … Continue reading Choosing Trust
Fascinated by the toxic air, breathe in satisfyingly The suffering within, the entire world within will be clouded Entrapping a pernicious fate with distorted time Everyone feels confident about the misadventures… feels triumphant A satanic evocation, rituals of a tormenting kind Inventions that have contaminated throughout uprisings Few are there to contradict, stand up for the truth, the banal progression Exhausting minds, altering reality and … Continue reading Challenged and Channelled
Through the prism of comparisons Everything looks blurry and bleak There appears no imaginations and words It is a difficult craft to chronicle the emptiness But it continuously echoes like a harsh winter Eyes far away from reality, and heart sinks ~Amitav Continue reading It’s Difficult
Fables are real compared to the reality that births them Who can focus on life and probe its nature so patiently? Life’s truancy becomes unbearable even to the misbehaved boy How much muck can those hands gather? Deface and defame the facade of life with vulgar graffiti Unclean thoughts desecrate the mind at odd hours Abuse finds its legitimacy in mainstream communication A foolish mask … Continue reading From Stories that Emerge
Evening carry the burden of the day tirelessly It does so without a complaint; as a responsibility Still manages to keep its tranquillity Settles down and urges life to take it easy Not to rush through the troubles and hastiness Those who may not have listened Argued with the fury borne out of insecurity Thought, without thinking about you Often, the burden of others cannot … Continue reading Carrying the Burden
How long can you stare at the stillness brought upon by gloominess? Sincerely holding on to the cynic who wants to believe the unbelievable All the images are solitary, if not being bound by surrounding reflections Blue sky responds with a wry smile at the ripples of life’s chaos Faces distorted over the gloomy canvas creased by the daily troubled accents The languages strain for … Continue reading Through The Course Untrue
Turned away from the garden The beauteous feel and aroma feels delirious In haste, the heart decided to act Eyes full of beautiful dreams Whom to trust them with May narrate them to the wrong person How long, before the escape Desire those wings before the last breath Decide to hold on to the rush Daily commute through a dark tunnel There is that time … Continue reading Turned Away
The pandemonium from the vacant arguments Somehow, the day is forced to settle down unquietly Time is pulled into the argument and wound tightly Grotesque voices scrape across the walls Murals of anxiety, aggressiveness, and foul language Permanent signs of dissonance Natural lights have been barred from the premises The togetherness of loneliness and other passive fear Many overlapping coffee stains tables the discord Dust … Continue reading Vacant Feelings
Impatience provides a momentary euphoria Rigours of silence when the world is talking in an indecipherable language Surprises of joy from an unknown source slipped between life and you Beguiled by the slippery path that journeys through insecurity The treasures of the soul forcefully taken away by masked brigands Once, they felt like eager hands of friendship; but, they became hostile Lamenting about the loss, … Continue reading Scattered
It’s not those dreams that resemble, but the ones that are simply yours Struggle for your attention, while they tremble and mumble timidly Surrounded by the high decibel troubles that ensure anxious heartbeats At the centre of an arrhythmic life of falsehoods and disguised reasons Of unfounded principles, they become the behemoth that shadows conscience Tyrant dreams continue to busy life with worries, challenges, and … Continue reading Unheard and Distant
